although it's not popular, i would definitely vote for dio. the music has way more energy, and i think he is a better singer than ozzy. alot of ozzy's stuff after sabbath is riddled with pitch corrections. watch an un-edited live video of ozzy. he can't sing very well, and has the stage presence of a tree.
dio, on the other hand, owns the stage from the moment he brings his little self on to it.

Umm BLack Sabbath with OZZy hands down they bassicaly helped create Modern Rock Music SLudge Metal Stoner rock and Doom metal weither they knew it or not thats a big thing they did

For somebody (judging by the avatar);in the 21st century I might add;who still plays Pokemon... :yikes: Enough said. Also this shouldnt become the stereotypical image of Black Sabbath fans.
To me, popularity has nothing to do with it. I think if people just make decisions based upon popular opinion rather than their own then your basically not being true to yourself and just generally being a sheep.
I would estimate that 90% of people who are really into Heavy Metal & dont like Dio's voice/brand him as complete **** etc either
a) have a pessimistic view based on knowledge of popular opinions.
b) havent actually listened with a clear mind (unbiasedly) to him singing.
I can accept that people just dont like his voice due to personal taste but I feel most of it is just because he isnt the original singer and they have pessimistic views towards him already before theyve even heard him singing.

Whats right with it? :shycouch:

well the makers seem to know how to make a fun RPG

iam not saying its the best but in terms of score Pokemon games have scored pretty good if u have a DS its a fun game to get

Ill say no more..

As I said before- I much prefer Ozzy-era Sabbath. However the albums with Dio were still very very good. How can any Metal fan not love 'Falling Off The Edge Of The World'?

just as no one wants to applaud the awful junk they put out with ian gillan

I actually have the Ian Gillan album 'Born Again'.
I would class it as 'awful junk' though.
I dont mind it but it ranks lower than most other Sabbath albums.
To me Ian Gillan (as much as I love Deep Purple & he is a cracking vocalist)
he just isnt suited to Black Sabbath.

What's worse was during that tour with Gillen they played Smoke On The Water during the encores :(
